About Mrs
Gain the insider knowledge, examiner expertise and proven strategies needed to achieve top grades. As a qualified teacher, experienced GCSE and A Level examiner, and literacy specialist, I provide students with the exact techniques, structures and exam skills that exam boards reward. Whether you are aiming to secure a pass, achieve a Grade 9, or reach an A/A*, my tailored approach helps students build confidence, master exam technique and consistently exceed their target grades.
Hello, I'm Laura, a highly experienced and qualified teacher, GCSE and A Level examiner, and literacy specialist (NPQLL) with a proven track record of helping students exceed their target grades and build lasting confidence in their abilities.
I tutor the following subjects across all major exam boards and levels:
• English Language & English Literature (all levels)
• History (all levels) & Politics (GCSE & A Level)
• Access Course assistance
• Essay writing skills
• UCAS Personal Statements and university applications
• Undergraduate humanities support / general essay support
I teach students from: Key Stage 2, Key Stage 3, GCSE, A Level, BTEC, IB (International Baccalaureate), Undergraduate Level, Access Course (return to education) and resits.
As an examiner, I know exactly what exam boards are looking for. Every year, I mark thousands of exam scripts, giving me unique insight into the differences between average, good and top-grade responses. This means I can teach students not only what to write, but how to meet the precise assessment criteria required for success.
My lessons focus on developing high-level analytical and evaluative skills, effective essay structure and organisation, examination technique and time management, academic confidence and independent thinking and subject knowledge and critical understanding.
Parents have described me as a "magician" for the rapid progress their children make in both attainment and confidence. Whether a student is aiming for a Grade 4, Grade 9, A*, or Oxbridge-level preparation, I tailor every lesson to their individual needs and goals.
I hold:
• A First-Class Honours Degree in History
• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
• National Professional Qualification in Leading Literacy (NPQLL)
and other teaching qualifications, along with evidence of marking with various exam-boards.
Throughout my career, I have taught across both primary and secondary education, led English progress initiatives, overseen literacy development strategies, and supported students from a wide range of backgrounds and attainment levels.
I have extensive experience working with high-attaining students aiming for top grades, students preparing for competitive university, applications, SEND learners, including autism, dyslexia and ADHD, SEMH students and students who have lost confidence or fallen behind in their studies.
My approach combines expert teaching, examiner insight and personalised support to ensure every student makes measurable progress. Lessons are engaging, supportive and challenging, with a strong focus on building both academic success and long-term confidence.
If you are looking for an experienced teacher who understands exactly how exams are assessed and how students can maximise their potential, I would be delighted to help. Together, we can develop the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to achieve outstanding results.

My teaching is focused, structured and personalised, but what truly sets it apart is my experience as an examiner. Every year, I mark thousands of exam papers, giving me direct insight into what actually gains marks and what common advice often falls short.
Many students are taught generic techniques, acronyms and formulaic approaches that sound impressive but don't always meet the assessment criteria. As an examiner, I can dispel these myths and show students exactly what examiners reward in real responses.
I teach students how to think like examiners: how to interpret questions accurately, structure answers effectively, analyse with precision and avoid the mistakes that prevent students from reaching the highest grades.
Every lesson is tailored to the individual. Whether a student needs support with confidence, essay writing, exam technique or subject knowledge, I break complex skills into clear, manageable steps that deliver measurable progress.
My approach combines high expectations with genuine encouragement. Students are challenged, supported and given the tools they need to succeed.
Parents frequently comment not only on improved grades, but also on the confidence and independence their children develop. My goal is simple: to provide the expert guidance, examiner insight and proven strategies that help students achieve their full potential.
